Former GM Marketing Chief Joel Ewanick Lands Interim Position At Fisker
2Sponsored Links
After losing his esteemed position as GM’s global chief marketing officer this past July, Joel Ewanick made do by acting as a consultant to several businesses revolving in and around the automotive industry, according to Automotive News. For the past six weeks, he was a marketing consultant for Fisker, a company now run by former Chevrolet Volt chief engineer Tony Posawatz as of August.
Just recently, Fisker had announced the retirement of 58-year-old Richard Beattie, the company’s global marketing and sales chief. Shortly after, Fisker released a statement announcing Ewanick as Beattie’s interim replacement. It’s possible that GM’s former marketing boss could assume a permanent role at Fisker, but company spokespersons declined to comment on the notion.
Hopefully Fisker can rebound from its recent quality issues and prosper, and not become a place where GM careers go to die.
